Need Some Help With My Turbo Timer

Posted this in the Security and Alarm section but didn't even get a single reply you guys here always seem pretty helpful so hopefully one of you guys can point me in the right direction?

Well basically my R33 GTST 1995 came with a nifty simple as chips pivot turbo timer it's controlled by a rotary dial with a selection of 0 1 or 3 minutes the actual unit is just under the fuse box and it's seems pretty straight forward but I have no idea what wire is what. The problem is that my Turbo Timer appears to be linked to the ACC rather then just the ignition so when I turn the car off everything stays on and my alarm system wont activate until it turns off and even more of a problem is that the doors automatically unlock (which I can turn off but I'd love it it worked properly) when the engine shuts do you guys know if this is a hard fix? I'm assuming its a few wires needed to be switched around but I just cant figure out which!

Also if you guys know how to setup remote start that would be great to, it's all set up but i cant find out where to put the ignition sense wire! The cluster is all electronic so nothing there and cant find anything in the engine bay :)

Any help is appreciated in advance

James

My alarm had to be turbo timer compatible.

ie: When i purchased the alarm, i was asked if my car was turbo and if i had a turbo timer. They then supplied an alarm that would wait for the engine to stop, before immobilizing; the doors lock, etc while the engine is running.

If your alarm is not compatible you'll need to put up with it or buy a new alarm.

Yea AL it is compatible but the way it works is that it arms when the ACC has been turned off I thought it wasn't compatible and was just dealing with it until I met someone on teh Pizza curse who had the exact same alarm and his was all fine and dandy which got me thinking on getting these things fixed

      Oof. One of my mates has an R34 GT-R that he initially was a "I want to go twins for response and convenience" on his stock 2.6 with Kelford 272 cams, but his friends are pests and were always in his ear about their place being in the bin.   Eventually one of the 2860-5s decided to add it's own input and force his hand, so he conceded and went for a Pulsar 6262G ("G35 900") with T4 0.85 hotside.    Here's an overlay of the results, same cams, same stock bottom end, same boost, same fuel, just from a pretty tidy 2860-5 install to a Pulsar turbo on a 6boost maniifold on BP98.   Worth mentioning here, it may seem like a dead horse thing but the dyno plot doesn't tell the story of how much better it is to drive - transient response has completely changed the car, he used to have flat foot shifting to stop it having to wind up again on gear changes even at >7000rpm... now it builds boost faster than that even short shifting.   It's 100% transformed the car before you even consider how much better it holds on: Pulsar and Garrett aren't the same, but from our experience if you're just looking for a better drive and the ability to make the same or more power I think the divided G30 770 would probably be the smallest I'd go to.

      Sweet, yeah hoping stock gears will hold up. May use the transbrake feature on hill climb starts so that will test it.

      Been down in Tassie for 2 weeks (a cruise, not a race for once) but spent a little time on her when I got back. I worked out the injector settings in the PowerFC were not correct for nismo 555s, set those to 66% +10ms and added a little air at closed throttle, set the timing (approximately, because it has some weird non 15o cells around idle) and now she starts and idles properly. She purrs like a kitten (ignore the co2 alarm in the background, I did  ) 20250518_171052.mp4 Next step, off for run-in, tuning and alignment!
